This cute snowman card is for the challenge on Split Coast Stampers Dirty Dozen interactive. I used this cute little old Northwoods rubber snowman 2004 stamp and masked them, colored with copics and Spica pens. I stamped the Stampscapes mountains and the Sutter trees. I used the air compressor and sprayed the copics around the card and then added some white dots with white liquid pearls and glitter.

I needed two thank you cards this week and I used 3-D stickers for both of these. Spellbinders die cuts and some gold pen and stickers to finish the card.These are Reddy Creative Cards from Ecstasy Crafts. You just punch out the layers and pop dot them.

Wow what a fun challenge Flourishes is having this week. Getting ready for the new release next week the challenge is a progressive one. There are 8 things that you need to use on your card. The first is to make a card that is NOT an A2 card, I'm using a 6x6 square card that I used the French flair die from Cheery Lynn to cut it out. I added a smaller layer of the French Flair with patterned paper and edged both those layers with peel off gold borders.I sponged some distressed broken china ink on both layers. Then I cut out a Joy craft die in lavender and edged it with a gold pen. I stamped and colored with copics the beautiful poinsettia and pine stamp from Flourishes and then cut it out by hand. I added a triple bow and a tag from Spellbinders with the saying from this set to finish this card. The recipe for the card was:
Not an A2, floral image, Ribbon or lace, inspiration photo which was turq/pink, add a tag, rounded corners or curvy die, some antiquing, and a die cut. I think I made all of these.

I made this for my hairdresser this year. My sister wanted one in purples and yes the saying is a peel off that I colored to match but it scanned red?? All the dies are Marianne dies and the peel off is holographic with purple paper behind it. You can get Marianne dies from Joan's Garden orSweet stamps. The silver background is made with two Anja corners, then the Anja square is the next three layers, the two top layers are insides to other Marianne dies sets.

This beautiful ornament is from the Ornament bundle at Our Daily Bread Design. I'm using it for the shining light challenge this week, Deck the Halls. I cut and embossed two ornaments in gold EP and layered them on the snowflake background which was also embossed in gold. I used the Martha Stewart around the page punch on blue mirror card and backed it with white. I took a few of the snowflakes and added them to finish the card. Be sure to check out the new stamps at Our Daily Bread Design, some gorgeous holiday stamps and matching dies.
